Update on my wrecked st205 here in midwest Options

[FORGMANN]

here is car as it is right now .. have front rad support complete off clip ready to repair front and a host of other goodies ..

Car would be done by now but buying a house will make you adjust budget for car a lot ..

NOTE car has 98 dash trim and i didn't paint it was done as oem in 98 .. breaks up the all black interior
also has 98 steering wheel and shift knob ..

car will have wrc wing as order the only set of riser blocks in US from my dealer and only way to get them was to supply my frame number ...

more pics to come when we get it fixed or state of being fixed ..

RHD's are legal in most, if not all, of the U.S. It's just one of those "Well you can do that, but we would like you to do this instead..."

the RHD isnt the problem...its the DOT legalization of the car. too much has to be changed for it to be made legal and pass inspection and what not. one of the biggest things is you have to prove it passes crash tests under US standards in which case youd have to provide a car to be crash tested and have toyota sign off that its good [last i heard anyway]

normally you can bring one in as a parts car or for race/ show use only.
as a parts car it could never be legally registered without swapping the vin
as a race/show car theres a certain amount of mileage allowed and its checked every so often

of course theres ways to get around these things
im interested in how much it all costs and what people did to legally register it in the states
